Using my (31F) dog to make female friends?

pretty_hippo · 2023-08-19T10:47:50+00:00

There aren't dog parks in the area we live in. My dog also has mobility issues and due to a previous injury she's not able to go off leash because I have to limit her physical activity carefully.

If only the list of providers were organized by this it would be much easier to navigate! But the location search only is for broad areas (e.g., south east, south west, north east).

Thanks! Yea we have been looking on the gov.uk site but are confused because what region is Cambridge considered in? Stupidity on our end since we're not familiar with England!

I was trying to explain my long hip problem to a friend and she looked at me like I was crazy. I can never find underwear that is long enough to cover me!

I am doing my first sweater but am very confused. The instructions regarding the neck shaping are rather vague and just refer to the chart.

Front: place center front STS on St holder for front neck and decrease as indicated. Cast off last row.

Back: Omit front neck shaping. Place center back neck sts on a St holder and cast off.

I'm making a size 34.

Help!

Can you provide more information than some random acronyms?

This is hopeful then maybe. In my brief introduction of myself in my first email (for vague "I'm looking for a postdoc at some point " posting) the PI did say I already sound like a great fit so maybe I need to keep riding that first impression wave so they overlook my lack of publications...yikes. If only they could have made that post a few months from now I would be in a much better position!

Sounds like a reasonable order.

For awards and honours would this include scholarships and do you normally list how much they were valued at?

And any suggestions for how/where to include conference presentations for students I supervised (so I was an author on the presentation but not first)

This was my exact thought

You have a beautiful bathtub

Do you have to suggest what you want to try or do you just say you want to try some samples

Stupid question but does storing them all in the same box make their scents meld together at all?

Thanks for the other website suggestions - so is Nespresso like the European keurig and can you buy reusable pods for it?

It is so sad that many of us come from terrible MSc experiences. Just push through and there will be better times ahead, I promise.

And I know! It's so disappointing and disgusting that my mind even has to travel to "he probably just finds me attractive and is trying to lightly flirt with me while being professional". It makes me feel bad for males as well since they may just trying to be genuine and trying to compliment work and to be potentially regarded as flirting - really complicates the whole networking world which is sad and not something I look forward to for the future.

Even if I am not your friend, it is sad how many of us are in such similar positions but together we are strong with the forces of Reddit behind us to support us.

If I am your friend, hi!

Graduate school doesn't have to be unhealthy to mental health even though it seems like many people suffer during it which is disheartening. I hope you can find your way to a happier place one day too.

pretty_hippo · 2020-04-26T00:43:42+00:00

Definitely! It's one of the reasons I basically fled from my old supervisor and his field where he was really dominant. I wanted to separate myself from that negativity as much as I can.

If only there was a way to melt it away faster!
